[PATCH 4.14 164/193] x86: um: vdso: Add %rcx and %r11 to the syscall clobber list

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Ammar Faizi <ammarfaizi2@xxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 5541992e512de8c9133110809f767bd1b54ee10d ]

The 'syscall' instruction clobbers '%rcx' and '%r11', but they are not
listed in the inline Assembly that performs the syscall instruction.

No real bug is found. It wasn't buggy by luck because '%rcx' and '%r11'
are caller-saved registers, and not used in the functions, and the
functions are never inlined.

Add them to the clobber list for code correctness.

Fixes: f1c2bb8b9964ed31de988910f8b1cfb586d30091 ("um: implement a x86_64 vDSO")
